French version



-Teaching :

  • Introductory courses in real time systems (scheduling theory, synchronous languages, Ada, real time operating systems).
  • Graduate courses in object distributed systems (CORBA, RMI technologies).
  • Teaching materials : some labs and some slides (sorry, they are in french).
  • Text book (with exercises and solutions) : Building Parallel, Embedded, and Real-Time Applications with Ada. J. W. McCormick, F. Singhoff, J. Hugues. Cambridge University Press, UK, 365 pages, December 2010. ISBN-13: 9780521197168. Solutions of the exercises and the Ada programs of this book are freely available from the Cambridge University Press website.





-Research :

  • Keywords: real-time embedded systems, modelling and verification, architecture languages, performance analysis ; queueing systems, real-time scheduling theory.
  • I’m member of the LISyC laboratory.
  • My researches focus on resource dimensioning in embedded real-time systems, and especially on real-time scheduling theory and architecture languages.
  • I’m also member of the AS-2C committe of the SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers). This committee is in charge of the AADL language (Architecture Analysis and Design Language).
  • In 2002, I started the development of Cheddar, a tool based on real time scheduling and queueing system theory. Cheddar is open-source, but Ellidiss Technologies is also providing industrial support on this toolset. This software is mainly developed by the University of Brest/LISyC and Ellidiss Technologies, by a team which is currently composed of Alain Plantec (UBO/LISyC),  Stéphane Rubini (UBO/LISyC), Pierre Dissaux (Ellidiss Technologies), Jérôme Legrand (Ellidiss Technologies) and Frank Singhoff (UBO/LISyC). The project is sponsored by Ellidiss Technologies and Conseil régional de Bretagne. Research on AADL and Cheddar is conducted in collaboration with  S3/Télécom-Paris-Tech, MARS/ISAE, MOVE/LIP6 and others (see the website of Cheddar for further details).
